Illegal Immigrants was the prequel rock band to Illimms Productions, the film-making company run by Sam Baron and Raph von Blumenthal. A reimagining of the Illegal Immigrants has recently made a triumphant return for a short film called "We Drink Tea", a response to the SNL Narnia Rap, which you can watch right here. Since then the Illegal Immigrants have produced a follow up video called America (I Love You) and other comedy rap songs Blasphemy and MySpace!

Sam & Raph,
You two should put either Flaming Squad or Star-Crossed Lovers on here, I'm sure everybody would love those songs aswell-- besides, I want to put Flaming Squad on mine! Fucking sweet. I'm totally digging Jack Miller and Tom Powys. Nice work, dudes. It was about time you put something new out anyways, wasn't it? Can't wait for future music from you two.
